Report: Dez Bryant Tells Cowboys He’ll Sit Out If He Doesn’t Get New Contract

Dez Bryant has drawn a line in the sand when it comes to seeking a new contract.

The Dallas Cowboys wide receiver told executive vice president Stephen Jones that he won’t attend training camp and could even sit out regular-season games, if he doesn’t get a long-term contract.

The Cowboys placed the franchise tag on Bryant back in March, and the two sides have until Wednesday to work out a long-term deal. If the deadline comes and goes, Bryant would be forced to play the 2015 season under the franchise number, which is $12.8 million for Bryant.
